How a Man with a Broken Back Ran a Half Marathon

New Study: Advance CBP for Fractured Vertebra

The chiropractic experts at Complete Spine Solutions have helped thousands of patients suffering with moderate to severe pain associated with degenerative diseases, post-traumatic injuries, and abnormal spinal deformities such as spondylolisthesis. Spondylolisthesis is a broken back bone in which part of the vertebra slips or shifts into an unnatural position. Most common in the lower back, this condition can also occur in the upper spine or neck, leaving the sufferer in severe pain. Those suffering with this condition can frequently experience symptoms such as:

Pain

Loss of mobility

Numbness or tingling

Sore and weak muscles

Poor circulation

Usually, a fractured vertebra is mechanically addressed through risky back surgery., with debilitating side effects. Alleviating pain with NSAID’s or opioids can lead to dependency on medications that increase health risks.

From a Broken Vertebra to a Half Marathon?

The greatest satisfaction is hearing about the successes of our patients following spinal corrective treatment. Today, we’re excited to share with you results that illustrate how Advanced CBP technique can correct a spinal fracture without surgery and painkillers. Our patient was a 20-year old athlete who suffered a fractured vertebra. After 3 months of a customized CBP protocol to naturally decrease the displacement of the bone, he comfortably and successfully ran a half marathon. Better yet, he reports feeling up to 95% better than he did before his customized chiropractic treatment at CSS. Our study is just one of many confirmations of how mirror gentle force adjustments, targeted exercises and mirror image traction can naturally alter and reshape the spine into a better, more stable position, for long-term health.

Consider a Spinal Doctor for Chronic Pain First

Unfortunately, surgery has become such a common “quick-fix” for alleviating pain. Even worse, many doctors don’t mention that going under the scalpel can decrease the patient’s future quality of life: significant re-surgery rate, long rehabilitation, high probability of future spinal degeneration, etc. Surgery should always be the very last resort, especially when dealing with chronic pain, migraines, or lack of mobility.
